Bloody but unbowed
Aug. 25th, 2009 12:44 pmSecond emergency-room visit in a month due to getting fingers of right hand slammed in garage door. ( Cut for the squeamish. )
At least this time I could read (Spanish/French edition of Historia universal de la infamia - reading Borges isn't an efficient way to study Spanish, but it's a fun way to study Borges, breaking out his hypallages and connoisseur Argentine slang for consideration. Also French and Spanish have the wackiest false friends: tergiversar means something completely different from tergiverser, wha?).
In other news, more recs on DW - some of you might want to check it out cos I review your stuff (inadequately). XD; Also the SSBB deadline is tonight.
